If it's the person I am thinking of with the recent multitude of lots on eBay, yes she has been a problem for people on here and the MLPTP. It's why I avoided bidding on any of her auctions. Apparently, she's up to her same old scams and sob stories.

This just sounds fishier than fishy. Also, if they are police officers and thus should be rule-obeying people, why is she so reluctant to follow eBay's rules?

OK, being a police officer isn't about obeying eBay rules, it's about enforcing laws. And if they claim to be NYPD, it's city laws and state laws. Outside work, they are allowed to be human. Sorry, as a police wife, it had to be said.

I do agree with that, but being human outside work shouldn't involve 'scamming' and acting like this - what she does is not OK in my books, and it definitely does not fall under "being human off work" (and knowing you based on your posts I'm sure it's the same for you. Like... I could never even imagine you doing something like this) and that's something I'd especially not expect from someone whose work is like this. That's what I was trying to refer to

Fingers crossed for you ChipsteRJ! I hope your lot turns up fast and in the described condition!

What I meant is that as a police officer you are expected to know the laws you are enforcing. However, outside of work, if you are a police officer and you sell on eBay, you don't have to have the eBay policies memorized and you are implying that as a police officer you must know all of the policies of eBay and therefore must follow them strictly above anyone else as a duty of your job. When it's possible they may not know they are breaking any rules or just don't know all the rules. I know in my husband's case, he doesn't know all of eBay's rules.

In the OP's case, I neither believe this seller is a police officer nor do I believe their story. But, you never know since there are people who do this job who really are not the type you would expect to be doing it and they are the ones you'll see in the news being recorded in cell phone videos.

Might sound kinda mean; but if so many people have had problems with buying from her and she does stuff like this regularly.. Wouldn't it be better to name and shame her? To prevent others from falling for her trap and such.

I hope your items arrive safely and soon, ChipsteRJ!

I was thinking the same thing. When someone says "dodgy seller" and a bunch of people correctly guess who it is based on their shady habits . . . well, that's a bad sign, lol.

If it's who I think it is, here are some threads on the arena about the seller I was referring to in my reply. The first one is a thread I started. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe the OP is dealing with a different seller.

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

The mods can let me know if sharing these threads is inappropriate. If she's up to her old tricks and guilt trips maybe other members should know. And as CoonhoundBetty said, read her replies to negatives. They really say something about the seller's character, or rather lack thereof.

I tried looking for other complaints before I posted mine, but yes it was Eaglesfan73.

Package arrived, but at least 1 item was missing and about 20-30 other items were thrown in. I'll have to go through eveything to see if anything else is missing, but what I really wanted/ needed it was there- I got a decent deal, so it might be in my best interest to not mention anything at all based on those other threads ....
